My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Vanity Height

10 years ago
What is the total height from floor to top of sink? And ht of floating space? I'm thinking of doing the same thing with an IKEA vanity 23" ht, 5" vessel sink and quartz countertop. If the top of the sink is 34", that would only leave about 5-6" floating space at bottom. Is that too little? Thank you!

    The height of the counter in this picture is 36" plus the height of the sink (5" approx.) which is unusually high. I would recommend a maximum of 34"- 36" to the top of the sink , which will leave a 5"-8" gap at the bottom of the vanity which I believe is plenty (unless the user is in a wheelchair).The most important issue to consider is what the occupant of this space is comfortable with. Thank you.
